Add a OBIEE Dashboard Link in EBS Suite

Hi
How can i add an OBIEE URL link in EBS Suite application so that when a user
clicks on it it takes them to the dasboard page in OBIEE.
Thanks

As you said directly with read permissions the dashboard link doesnt appear because that is rendered through administartor.
You have got it when you added to "Presentation Administrator group" i.e because the server side will handle all the possibilities and the permissions on it.
create your own catalog group again and name it and then after that checkout you have given the right dashboard name and dont leave the dashboard builder empty..Fill it up with Administrator and the user you want to give access then add members to the group and give them the neccessary permissions so that would give them access.
Hope it helps you.
Best Wishes,
Kranthi.

Return link on OBIEE dashboard page

When we have a drill down from a dashboard page to a report, we will have a return link on the report to navigate back to the dashboard page.
But if we are drilling down to another dashboard page, Can we have the OBIEE return link functionality on the target dashboard page to navigate back to the first dashboard page?
I have tried following options:
1.When I tried to incorporate this using OBIEE Guided navigation link, navigation is happening with all the filters which is expected.
2.I tried it with link rather than Guided navigation link, the navigation is happening like the page loading for the first time, hence the user has to re-enter the prompts fields for dashboard page execution.
My Objects are dashboards D1,D2 and Report R1
Drill down on D1 will navigate to D2 and drill down on D2 will navigate to Report R1 and clicking return on R1 will navigate to D2.To navigate from D2 back to D1, I need the OBIEE return functionality.
Can anyone help me on this?
Thanks Shravan

Hi Srikanth,
Thank you for your response.
I tried to follow the content in the link and I get a Web Page Not Found response.
I substitued the parameters of scid and the Portalpath.
I am not sure what else is going wrong.
What is expected is if D1 dashboard being executed with certain parameters before navigation, then on clicking the Return link, we need to get the dashboard page executed with same parameters which is like Back button.I will not be able to use the script for Back functionality of the browser as I also have a drill dwon from the D2 dashboard page to the Report R1. Hence on clicking on Return will take me to R1 rather than D1.
Below is the execution sequence that is required:
D1-->D2-->D1
D1-->D2-->R1-->D2-->D1
Hence I would like to know how can I get the OBIEE return link displayed on the dashboard page which we get on a drill down request.
Thanks

Mapping Roles/Groups between OBIEE 11g and Oracle EBS R12

Hi,
We are implementing OBIEE 11g with Oracle EBS R12 as source system. Also we are using Out of the box RPD for Oracle EBS R12.
But we are facing lot of challenges to map OBIEE 11g groups and EBS roles and responsibilities. We do not have prior experience with EBS as source system.
Can anyone tell how to map between obiee groups with Oracle E-Business suit R12
Is there any document link or notes regarding this.
Any help regarding this will really save us.
Thanks in advance

Please read:
Integrating with EBS Suite Security: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E28280_01/bi.1111/e16364/ebs_actions.htm#BIEIT1321
As I understand you need to create a Connection Pool to your EBS database. I think that would be a serious security aspect for the integration to work over two different networks. But I don't think it's impossible.
Domain Prerequisites is another challenge in this scenario.
More specifically: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E28280_01/bi.1111/e16364/ebs_actions.htm#CHDHCAFD

BI publisher report on OBIEE dashboard in a particular format

Hi All ,
We have a situation wherer we need to show a BI Publisher report on the OBIEE dashboard .
The Dashboard has a prompt on 'Year' and 'Quarter'.The issue we are facing is ,based on the prompt value the report column header should also change.
e.g :
Year=2003 , Quarter=3
It should give us the revenue for different Products for last four quarter :
Product----------------------2003 Q3---------2002 Q4--------2002 Q3--------2002 Q2---------20002 Q1
Airconditioner----------------100----------------200----------------300--------------400-----------------234
Refrigerator-------------------145----------------208----------------350--------------467-----------------264
Example 2 :
Year=2004 , Quarter=4
It should give us the revenue for different Products for last four quarter :
Product----------------------2004 Q4---------2004 Q3--------2004 Q3--------2004 Q1---------2003 Q4
Airconditioner----------------100----------------200----------------300--------------400-----------------234
Refrigerator-------------------145----------------208----------------350--------------467-----------------264
How can we acheive this column header.
Please advice.
Thanks!!

Hi,
based on the prompt value the report column header should also change. You want to change the value of the column heading dynamically based on prompt.You will get this by using the Presentation variable.So,you have to integrate both the bi publisher+rpd.

Dashboard Link in page Header

I'm having a hard time displaying a link to a dashboard next to the "My Dashboards" link in the header. A link displays for the Administrator account, I just want it to also display for normal users. The dashboard is saved under a shared folder.
Shouldn't it just be as easy as adding the user to the Manage Dashboard permissions with Read access? If I add my user as "Read" access to the dashboard, the only way the user can view the dashboard is if they make it their default dashboard since there is no link in the header. The only way I have found to get the link in the head is to add that user to the "Presentation Server Administrators" group. I even tried creating my own group with my user and adding that to the permissions as Full Control with no success.
My goal is to display a link to my dashboard next to the "My Dashboards" link in the header. I want the dashboard to be read only. Am I missing something?

As you said directly with read permissions the dashboard link doesnt appear because that is rendered through administartor.
You have got it when you added to "Presentation Administrator group" i.e because the server side will handle all the possibilities and the permissions on it.
create your own catalog group again and name it and then after that checkout you have given the right dashboard name and dont leave the dashboard builder empty..Fill it up with Administrator and the user you want to give access then add members to the group and give them the neccessary permissions so that would give them access.

Deleting Dashboard Links

Hi,
We are using Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition v10.1.3.4. In the OBIEE Answers, on the Oracle Interactive Dashboards Page, in addition to the "My Dashboard" link, we can also see the following four links:
1. 00 Overview
2. 01 Ranks & Toppers
3. 02 History & Benchmarking
4. 03 Tiering & Distribution
Now, we do not want our users to see the above four links.
Can we go ahead and delete the corresponding folders for these links from the location:
C:\OracleBIData\web\catalog\samplesales\root\shared\sample+sales\_portal
Or is there any better way of doing this (so as to ensure that nothing else in the application breaks up!)
Any help is much appreciated.
Best Regards,
Piyush

hi,
This is another option:
1. Edit the OracleBI\OracleBIData\web\config\instanceconfig.xml
2. Change the CatalogPath to other name
After:
<CatalogPath>C:/OracleBI/OracleBIData/web/catalog/samplesales</CatalogPath>
Before:
<CatalogPath>C:/OracleBI/OracleBIData/web/catalog/mynewcatalogname</CatalogPath>
3. Save & Restart the services.
Note: This option create a new catalog and is usefull when you need to create this. But whit this steps you are unable to access to pages, links and reports in the old catalog.

How can I make a link to EBS from BIEE 11g?

Hello, I have some trouble with BIEE.
I tried to make a link to EBS from BIEE using Action, but it doesn't work.
I read manual and set as it is written, but when I click the link I got
message which says that "Oracle eBusiness Suite Server cannot be used now.
Please try it again.
If it won't be solved, contact to support desk".
I tried to edit xml files in many ways, but it doesn't work...
The document and posts about making link to EBS from BIEE 10g can be
often found on internet but not about 11g.
If anyone knows about this solution, please help me.
Yuchi

Hi Daan,
Thank you for your reply!
I construct the link by looking the document provided by Oracle.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/bi.1111/e16364/ebs_actions.htm#CJAFDEIB
In this document I followed the step to make database object and connection pool, set up
authentication and modify xml files. Then I thought I could use BI Action Navigate to EBS,
but it didn't work, then I asked coworkers and I've told to do "5.3 Embedding Links to Oracle Business Intelligence in Oracle E-Business Suite" in this document.
At first I thought I need not do this setting because I would like to make action navigate from BI to EBS,
not from EBS to BI.
Although I managed to embed link to BI in EBS, it still doen't work.(but the connection from EBS to BI was successful)
And I tried to verify BI and EBS are in same domain, but I have no idea how to verify.
Could you please give me the way to check it?
Sincerely,
Yuchi

Can an obiee dashboard expose a hyperion workspace

Hi all,
I have no experience with hyperion workspaces, does anyone know how (or if) an obiee dashboard can expose a hyperion workspace?
In other words, have obiee provide a link to a workspace, or, better yet, have links to hyperion documents within an obiee dashboard.
I've seen articles the other way around, where obiee can be integrated into hyperion workspaces, but not what I'm looking for.
Thanks, your help would be much appreciated.

Hi Dj,
As of now it only supports essbase integration and use the cubes directly in BI.
If you mean hyperion workspace which is application oriented it doesnt support,hopefully next release of 11g is planning for it its in the road map.Should see how it goes.
Hope it helps you.
